TVB gathers many handsome men and beautiful women, but there are also some actors who are not outstanding in appearance, and they also bring unforgettable classic roles to the audience. A person's character cannot be judged by appearance alone, and in the same way, an ordinary appearance does not mean that there is also a lack of beauty in the heart.
These four actresses, although they are often called "harlequins", and their life experiences are full of tragedy, they have pure and kind hearts, far more than others.
1.Yu Mulian.
For Yu Mulian, the most painful thing in life is not meeting responsible parents. She was born into a wealthy family in Guangzhou, but her mother divorced in pursuit of vanity and brought her to Hong Kong. Yu Mulian's mother was quite beautiful, and the entertainment industry in Hong Kong was very developed at that time, so she decided to devote herself to the Cantonese film industry and become a third-tier actress. Although her life seems to be good, she is an extremely selfish person who only cares about her own pleasure and does not care about her daughter's life or death.
Since she was a child, Yu Mulian has been working as a maid for her mother on the set, responsible for carrying bags, serving tea and water. When she was a little older, she was arranged to work as a trickster actor to earn a meager living expenses. In order to make her daughter earn more money, Yu Mulian was not sent to primary school by her mother until she was 11 years old, and after graduating from primary school at the age of 17, she was beaten and scolded by her mother on the set during the day, and she still had no rest after returning home at night, and she needed to wash dishes and wipe the floor. Once the housework is done and the mother's boyfriend comes, she is kicked out.
What is even more poignant is that shortly after her 18th birthday, her mother is no longer in charge of her life on the grounds of adulthood. In order to survive, Yu Mulian tried a variety of occupations, such as a movie theater usher, a handyman in a shopping mall, and even a part-time group performer. As long as she can make money, she is willing to do anything.
In 1973, TVB filmed its first sitcom "Seventy-Three" and needed the role of an ugly girl. Since the role was seen as unlucky, everyone else avoided it, and only Yu Mulian, who was in dire need of money, was willing to play it. This drama was a great success after it was broadcast, and Yu Mulian officially signed a contract with TVB and became an official actor. Since then, she has played numerous harlequin roles and has been well received by industry insiders. Although the salary is not high, Yu Mulian is very filial and often sends money to her father in the mainland. However, her father only knew how to ask for it and never cared for her. If she sends the money late, her father will even beat her up and scold her. The ruthlessness and indifference of her family made her feel very painful.
Although fate was extremely harsh on Yu Mulian, she was very disappointed in her marriage, never remarried, and never fell in love. However, Yu Mulian has always been kind-hearted. In 2005, 68-year-old Yu Mulian retired from wireless with a pension of more than 200,000 yuan, which is her meager savings. Later, she heard that children in the mountainous areas of Guizhou could not go to school because they did not have a school, and they urgently needed 80,000 yuan to build a school. Yu Mulian did not hesitate to donate 80,000 yuan to help build the "Yu Mulian Hope Primary School". She didn't mention it to anyone until two years later, when she stumbled upon it, and Wireless produced a show for her.
Because Yu Mulian had no children and no daughters, her life in her later years was very hard, and often a bread or a bowl of gruel was a meal. Despite the hardships of life, she still did what she could. She donates part of her pension to Médecins Sans Frontières and Oxfam every month, and even expressed her willingness to donate her organs after death to help those in need. Although Yu Mulian often plays a harlequin in her acting career, her heart is extremely beautiful.
Compared with Yu Mulian, Ma Hulu's childhood life was much happier, but due to her appearance, she was still misunderstood. Horseshoe Dew originally debuted through a singing audition, and she was joined by Ekin Cheng and Sammi Cheng. Although she has a good voice, she doesn't get too many opportunities among the many beautiful girls. As a result, Horseshoe had to take a back seat and worked as a DJ on the radio for a few years.
Later, on the recommendation of Zeng Zhiwei, Ma Hulu joined Wireless and participated in the first TV series "True Love", playing the role of the brutal and willful eldest lady "May May". The ratings of this drama were originally mediocre, but because "May May" played by Ma Hulu was so disgusting, it caused a ratings frenzy. When "May May" committed suicide by jumping off a building in episode 666, about one-third of Hong Kong's population ** this episode, and everyone opened beer to celebrate, which shows their hatred for it. This also became the most watched episode of the show. The following year, Wireless also specially awarded Ma Hulu a "Most Disgusted Role Acting Award". Since then, Ma Hulu has become TVB's "Eight Women Professional Household", specializing in playing some vicious and greedy roles. The following is a new version of the characters in the original text, incorporating new elements and perspectives while maintaining the semantic and grammatical correctness of the original text:
1.About Horseshoe Dew: Although she often plays annoying roles on screen, she is often misunderstood as her true colors because of her vivid portrayal. However, in reality, Horseshoe Dew is a kind person. Although she herself was not rich and could not even afford to buy a house, she was always happy to help the homeless elderly on the streets, providing them with food and warmth. Her three views are very positive, which is reflected in her unwavering support for the Hong Kong incident. Despite being attacked and bleeding from the corners of her mouth, she never regretted it. Her steadfastness and justice were finally praised by The People**. Compared with those stars who only value appearance and money, the sincerity and kindness of Horseshow are undoubtedly more worthy of our admiration.
2.About Yuan Qiongdan: When she was young, Yuan Qiongdan was actually a big beauty, but in order to gain a foothold in the highly competitive entertainment industry, she chose to play the harlequin. After graduating from the ATV artist training class in 1983, she starred in many film and television dramas, but she never became popular. It wasn't until 1991's "Truant Dragon" that she began to attract attention. Since then, she has focused on playing various funny and weird roles, such as Sister Pomegranate in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" and Lao Bustard in "Jiupin Sesame Official", and gradually emerged in the entertainment industry. Although Yuan Qiongdan always plays a harlequin, her seriousness and persistence in her relationships are well known, especially her relationship with the late Lin Zhengying. What's even more amazing is that some of her past events with Lin Zhengying are difficult to explain with science.
3.About Rufen: Rufen, formerly known as Zhang Weifen, is a veteran actor in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Known for her unique acting style and daring performances, she often plays unique roles in film and television productions.

However, a magical twist of fate led her to the world of showbiz. In 1985, she was introduced by her godfather Dong Bi to join Asia Television and began to get involved in the comedy work of TV shows, and occasionally made guest appearances in TV dramas.
Ruffin didn't want to become a professional actor, and her performance in the film and television industry was more out of interest and friendship. However, she and Zeng Zhiwei's wife Song Lihua have been best friends since childhood, which opened another door for her. In 1988, Zeng Zhiwei invited Lu Fen to play the role of "Shandong Woman" in "Women's Prison", and her role in the play was rampant and domineering, beating Zheng Yuling severely.
Since then, Ruffin has made a name for herself in the Hong Kong film and television industry and has become a well-known supporting actress. She often plays some characters with ** personality and rudeness, the most impressive of which are the "Fire Nurse" in "Jiupin Sesame Official" and the "Great White Shark" in "Tricky Expert".
